From the guidelines:

Ironically, by assuming bad faith and a condescending tone in the comment you responded to, you've made a legitimately condescending comment.

Personally, I think the put-down was quite on point. I don't see the point of flagging it, that just leaves the content to imagination.

Anyone can see flagkilled comments, or any [dead] comments, by turning 'showdead' on in their profile.

Just be warned that most of what you'll see is comments by banned users. Occasionally we get emails from people who don't realize that and somehow assume that moderators are condoning the worst dreck that appears there.
